@Peter_Mathijssen regarding app size, the base app size is going to be larger and get somewhat larger, at least for now. The good news is, unless you’re including a lot of big resources, your very complex apps won’t increase the size much at all. Having a uniform binary does come with some advantages though, at some point in the future we may be able to allow small over the air delta updates to be pushed to existing users of your apps. That being said, we hope to someday have a more dynamic build that will slim app sizes a bit. Keep in mind that when you publish to Google Play store, while the first download the users get will be the full app, the rest of the updates are deltas, see https://venturebeat.com/2016/07/22/google-plays-new-delta-algorithm-reduces-size-of-android-app-updates. Thanks for your feedback, we’ll continue to squash bugs and add features as fast as we can.
